Not only do father and son team Michael and Gavin Clifford create this great tasting gin but they also run a gin school where visitors create their own gin to take home . Now there’s an idea for a day out. And in the meantime, be sure to taste their wonderful gin, distilled right here in County Wicklow . 🍸
